Can the shipping domain be changed?
Icomm users may occasionally consider changing the shipping domain associated with their account. However, it is important to note that modifying the domain comes with certain challenges and it is recommended not to do so, except in serious cases where the previous domain has completely lost the trust of the carriers.
It is possible to modify the domain on the Icomm platform, as long as the appropriate steps are taken. To do this, the new domain must be correctly pointed to the Icomm infrastructure. Once this is done, the platform will need to be reconfigured to use the new shipping domain, a process that can take approximately 48 hours to complete.
It is essential to understand the implications of changing your domain at Icomm. First of all, it is important to note that when you make this modification, you are starting from scratch in terms of the reputation of the new domain. This means that any previous reputation associated with the old domain will be lost, as well as all processes and settings related to it. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to avoid domain change unless absolutely necessary.
At Icomm, we recommend our users to avoid making unnecessary changes to the shipping domain. Domain modification should be considered only in critical situations where the old domain has completely lost the trust of mail service providers.
It is important to note that a domain's reputation takes time and effort to build. By changing the domain, all the work done to establish a strong reputation is lost. Before making the decision to change the domain, it is essential to carefully evaluate the reasons and the needs that justify this drastic change.
If, after careful consideration, it is determined that the domain change is necessary, certain administrative steps must be followed to carry it out properly.
The first thing they need to do is send a request to Icomm's technical department: Contact Icomm's technical support team and explain in detail the need to change the sending domain. The technical department will coordinate with you the necessary steps and will provide you with the appropriate instructions.
Coordinate the setup of domain registries: Once the technical department has evaluated your request, the setup of the domain registries necessary to link the new domain with the Icomm infrastructure will be coordinated. This process guarantees that the new domain is correctly pointed to the platform.
Reconfigure the platform: Once the domain registration setup is complete, the Icomm platform will be reconfigured to use the new shipping domain. This process can take approximately 48 hours to complete, so patience is required during this transition time.
